Default Once again off IP, this time with a smile :)

Well, for those of you who know me, know that we lost our beautiful 2 yr old son, five months ago. I stalled out on IP, unable to continue at that point. I finally rekindled my desire to finish what I started, and thanks to the Christmas Challenge got a head start. However I seemed to have stalled out.

However it's because I am PREGNANT!

I had phased 3 myself( so I wasn't in ketosis) just after my husband had his reversal done, just in case, and I am glad I did. I am bursting with the news, finally some light back into our lives. It is still early, and having miscarriages in the past I am still remaining cautiously optimistic. I am MUCH healthier this time around...thank you IP and everyone on this board for getting me there

For those of you connected with me via facebook, please don't mention it yet, as we are keeping it under wraps until I hit the 3mth mark. I just needed a place to let out the news, so once again thank you to all of you my virtual tribe.

Good luck to everyone this holiday season, I look forward to hearing about shocked families who simply can't believe how amazing each and every one of you look. Enjoy!

Congratulations!!! What an awesome Christmas present and a great reason to go off the plan! I've had several miscarriages myself and so I can identify with the worries. I will keep you in my prayers. Keep us posted.
